A simple, yet powerful, utility to create an Atom Feed from your HTML files. It allows you to scan a directory for HTML files, parse the content, and generate a compliant Atom Feed that can be consumed by RSS readers or other services.

npm install @timrauhut/feedify

import generateFeed from '@timrauhut/feedify';

const config = {
  htmlDirectory: './path/to/html/files', // Directory containing HTML files
  outputFilePath: 'path/to/output/atom_feed.xml', // Output path for the generated Atom feed
  feedURL: 'https://example.com/feed.xml', // URL for your Atom feed
  feedTitle: 'Example Feed', // Title for your Atom feed
  selectors: {
    title: '.title', // Title selector for your post
    url: '.url', // URL selector for your post
    summary: '.summary', // Summary selector for your post
    date: '.date', // Date selector for your post
    author: '.author'// Author selector for your post
  }
};

generateFeed(config);

• htmlDirectory (string): The local directory containing your HTML files.
• outputFilePath (string): The file path where your Atom feed will be written.
• feedURL (string): The URL of your feed.
• feedTitle (string): The title of your feed.
• selectors: An object representing the CSS selectors for the necessary elements in the HTML files. This object should have the following properties:

  • summary: The CSS selector for the post summary.
  • date: The CSS selector for the post date.

Feedify uses the following interfaces:
